Hi Martin,

I am using a StringEdit object, I activated the textChange() method, using this method the timer should activate when a change occurs. This process is for Barcode scanning purposes. Because, we should not use the keyboard for key in the data on that particular StringEdit field. The length of the Barcode String is 8 to 10 Character. While using keyboard it may take 3 to 4 seconds to type, but using the scanner we can scan it with in a second. For this purpose this timer needed. to check the key in time.

We have to scan the data from the Barcode itself using Barcode reader, which is connected in the Keyboard port (PS/2) along with the Keyboard.

Pl. do the needful.

Thanks,

You can use setTimeOut() to execute a method after a certain amount of time.

Dear Martin,

Finally, we achieved the requirement by using setTimeOut() function.
